Let It Ride

Description

Jay Trotter has waited a lifetime for this day. He's got a hot tip on a horse everyone thinks is ready for the glue factory. But, as track aficionados say, "Even when you know, you never know." One thing you can be certain be sure of is that with Richard Dreyfuss, David Johansen, Teri Garr and more, this is a winning comedy. So put it in your VCR and Let It Ride. Its characters give new meaning to "the odds." And its heart will touch everyone who's wondered: "If every dog has his day, why can't every person have one?"

Still a great ride........2007-06-27

First saw this movie years ago with friends that rented it. Loved it. Couldn't believe we'd never heard of it. Maybe saw it once since then on TV, also awhile ago. It always comes to mind during the Triple Crown so because it's rarely shown on TV we bought it. I am happy to say it's just as good as we remembered it. Great story, great cast, funny, feel good movie. Robbie Coltrane's role is wonderful and Richard Dreyfuss is at his best.

A TRUE HIDDEN GEM!!!.......2007-02-18

I believe I caught this on cable way back when when i was a teenager and was smitten from the start. Its just such a happy goodhearted movie. I think I may know why it didnt do so well at the box office. The first 10 or 12 minutes drag a bit but after that hold on because your in for a real treat. Richard Dryfuss is at his comedic best and is complimented left and right by absolutely wonderful performances by, Jennifer Tilly, Robbie Coltrane, Buster Poindexter, etc... I would tell you to rent it and you will love it but after you see it you will have to own it. When your down it will put a smile on your face everytime. A similar type movie that I can also suggest is 29th Street. It has the same sort of lull at the very beginning as Let it Ride but it pays off the same.

Let It Ride & What About Bob.......2007-02-05

l bought Let it Ride, What About Bob and did not get Boys Town. When l received the movies l could not play them in my recorder or my DVD player which is supposed to play most movies, very disappointing as my daughter in law buys quite a few from you and has not trouble with hers. Regards Barbara

Overlooked gem with Dreyfuss and Teri Garr.......2007-02-04

Let It Ride was in theaters such a brief time I don't recall ever seeing the movie poster on the marquee. It did play extensively on the pay movie channels several years after release, and I do recall watching certain scenes over and over again. Bottom line, it's a hoot! Let It Ride is a very well crafted comedy. Despite the wardrobe of some characters the movie has aged well. The dialog is instantly quotable. If ever there was a feel good movie this is it. The scenes with Dreyfuss and Robbie Coltrane as the ticket agent at the $50 window are classic. This was the first time I saw Coltrane in anything, and he is simply hysterical. I love the way different classes of horse racing patrons are portrayed. If you've ever been to the track you'll recognize the cast of characters. Teri Garr isn't on screen much except the beginning and the end, but she and Dreyfuss definitely have chemistry. She's one of my favorite comedic actresses.
Watch 'Let It Ride' one lazy afternoon; you'll be surprised how it sticks in your head. Especially that stupid song... "I got the horse right here, his name is Paul Revere".

A Great Gift Idea!.......2005-03-11

My daughter loves the Kidsongs series. I jumped at the chance to buy these four at a reduced cost. She loves all the videos. It's a great gift idea. I bought this for her Christmas/Birthday gift. I only wish I had bought the other videos in packages like this instead of individually.....it would have saved me a bundle! Of the four DVD's she loves "I'd like to teach the world to sing", and "I can do it". Her face lights up when she sees the first songs. When she's in the mood she'll watch the others, but these two are her favourites.
